Lyrics
I'm a hummingbird, cruising round the town.
Flappin and floatin above the ground
I've been workin hard but havin fun
Hittin on flowers one by one
My wings are movin too fast to see
I'm gone in a flash and flyin free.
Those pretty little things got me chasin around
Making that hummin sound
Chorus:
Now if you get nice and close you'll hear me hum that tune
Spend a moment with me there cause I'll be gone real soon
And when you ask me where I'm going, I'll say I'm freedom bound
I'm a hummingbird don't slow me down
I'm a hummingbird don't slow me down
I'm a hummingbird don't slow me down
Instrumental La da dum La da di La da da di dum
I gotta hurry up and meet with Daisy
You know Rose, she's waitin too
I need to spend some time with Violet
So she don't look so blue.
And Lily is in the valley
Shakin off a bumble bee, singin
Hey Hummingbird won't cha be with me
I'm a hummingbird don't slow me down
I'm a hummingbird don't slow me down
Well, there ain't much to say about a hummingbird
Don't really hum, just the wings are heard.
They flutter and flit, and then they split.
Don't take time to walk or sit.
I'm a hummingbird buzzin everywhere
Flippin and a floppin thru the air
I've been workin hard but havin fun.
Hittin on flowers one by one.
Chorus repeat last two lines and out
